Professor Carletti is AMAZING! She is very accommodating and knowledgeable and loves what she teaches. The class consisted of 5 books that if you skim, you will still get most of the information. It is a valuable class as it teaches many things about Italian culture while also being an easier class to navigate. Aside from readings, there are 2 exams, and a journal for each reading. The exams are just papers that the prompt will be given for weeks in advance and will ask to elaborate on some of the readings and analyze them based on what we had learnt in class; and the final is a food recipe list made in the form of a personal story which is extremely valuable when looking back at it. We also had presentation in groups of 2 for each topic explored at the beginning of each class, but was easier than you would think. I had a great experience and will forever recommend taking at least one class with Carletti!

Professor Carletti is truly passionate about what she teaches. She is very accommodating to students' needs and is more than happy to meet about questions outside of class. There is a lot of reading in this course, but the readings are mainly stories. Much of class is interactive, conversing with peers and sharing ideas, rather than strictly lectures. I highly recommend this class.

I really enjoyed Professor Carletti's teaching style. She did a mix of lecture and discussion based classes. We also had students present on articles every week. There were a good amount of readings for every class, but they were doable. There are also journals that we had to do for every class, but the grading is mostly based on completion. There was a midterm where we selected 4 prompts and a final paper where we wrote a personal food story. Overall, this class was very fun and interesting!
